*** This comment may contain spoilers ***
The new series (2008) started slowly as far as I was concerned. I found it difficult to get back in the swim (or should that be swing?) of things.
BUT ANYWAY - I stuck with it and after viewing a few episodes (and possibly missing one) it started to come good again. I found the ones where lots of secrets were being revealed and Olive ended up in a Nunnery (shouldn't that be Convent?) to be quite confusing and hard to follow. The Bzzzz bee opening episode was quite good and the Frescorts episode last week was good. However, today's episode was just fantastic!! SPOILER POTENTIAL - There were a lot of quick/short-edited shots during character description scenes, which reminded me so much of a Guy Ritchie movie (eg Snatch or Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels) that it has made me determined to see if he guest wrote, or took part in, this episode somehow. And then there was the lady with the English accent who I thought was bound to be a 'baddy' (aren't they always?) - but NO not this time. I sat back and laughed so much - at the thought of food items representing poker hands! And what's more, surprise, surprise - Emerson getting a snog in a love scene with aforementioned English lady - WOW - didn't he look genuinely pleased with himself.
Fantastic episode!
